Lake Fontal and Mt. Stohr
(technical difficulty)
(physical difficulty)There are several locked gates in this area and parking at the first one you see might be advised. CYO Camp Hamilton is nearby. It is a kids camp and access might be limited when in use.
Info
This is a ride of dirt roads to Lake Fontal and Lake Hannan and an additional trip to the 1400' peak (Mt. Stohr) to the northeast. It is about 3 miles from the north side of the Cherry Valley system and Lake Margaret. A USGS map shows a road that ties this ride to the Cherry Falls access road if you want to lengthen the ride to single track!
